PREFACE
Primary education is like the foundation of schooling. It paves the way for
the achievement of educational goals. Students will be able to achieve elementary
and higher level skills only when proper foundational linguistic skills are practiced at
the elementary level. Unfortunately, quality education in schooling has become
ambiguous over the past decade. Students are lagging behind at the primary level in
the acquisition of basic competencies and the gap keeps whidening throughout
schooling. The 2021 National Achievement results reveal that around 70% of students
are at minimum level or below in the language acquisition. It seriously affects the learning
of students.
In addition to this, the learning crisis caused by the Corona epidemic for two
years from March 2020 has brought many challenges to the school education. Considering
these circumstances, Department of School Education has decided to conduct 'Tholimettu/
First Step' program at the primary level in the state of Telangana in partnership with
'Central Square Foundation', a voluntary organization for improving basic linguistic &
numeric competencies to achieve class-wise learning outcomes in the academic year
2022-23.
Accordingly, the State Council of Educational Research and Training has prepared
model annual, unit / lesson plans and daily period plans for teachers, keeping in view
of their work load for classes 1 to 5. Utilizing these, the teachers are expected to make
the teaching and learning processes meaningful for their respective classes, and motivate
the children to participate actively to make their learning joyful.
( iii )
The team members of 'Central Square Foundation' who participated in the
design of handbooks from the beginning of the 'Tholimettu' program till today are
acknowledged for their coordination and commendable work.

about to go to shop. Raju also wanted to go with his father to the shop. “Nana I want to come
along to the shop”. His father said, “OK Raju come”. Raju wanted to have some chocolates also.
Then Raju and his father went to diary shop to buy some milk. In the shop Raju saw different kinds

135
Activity-4
Teacher should frame as many sentences as s/he can to make them understand the meaning
of those words. Like
¾ Ravi speaks lambada language at home.
We learn Telugu language in the school.
We speak English Language in English period.
We have Hindi language from class VI.
¾ The guard at the station signals the train.
This guard is very bold and strong
The train stops when the guard whistles.
¾ Hurry up!
Hurry up! It is time to go to school.
Hurry up! The train is arriving at the station.
Hurry up! We are already late to the movie.
Hurry up! You are too slow.
Activity-5
The Teacher may ask the children to look× at the words on the black board once again.
young, old, men, women, boy, girl, small, big, rich, poor, city, village
Try to make the difference between the following set of words.
young, old
men, women
boy, girl
small, big
rich, poor
city, village
Teacher can explain that these set of words are the opposite of each others. Opposite words
are shown by putting a cross mark between the two. Now Teacher can ask children to say some
other words which are opposite to each other. Teacher may elicit as many words as possible and
write them on the board. Teacher can also ask the children to go back to the text they read and
see if they can find an opposite word for the words in the given text also.
Dark × Light
Big Small
136
Long Short
Friend Enemy
Activity-6
Practice exercise: Page number 12 B
Activity-2
Ask the children to present their lists of required things to the whole class. Ask them to
identify which are all the things that are in common. (The Teacher may write all the words on the
BB/chart.)
Ex : Which are the things that are different and why they are different?
Activity-3
Guess the item!
It has many teeth. We use to make our hair.
It is transparent. Looks like water but not water.
We use it to protect from cold and heat.
137
It is a cake. It comes in different colours. It has scent.
Our left is right and right is left in it when we see.
We use it daily morning. It shines our teeth.
Activity-4
Fill in the missing letters
S—o—p S—o— —— —ro—k C— ——b
B— —— k mi— — or ri— —ons c—c—n— — 0—
T— —th p—s—t— —and k—r—h— —f
wa— — — bo— — l—e
Activity-5
Do the task given in pg. no. 11
Activity-1
Teacher should display the chart of opposite words/ write the opposite words on blackboard.
Now ask the children to underline the words in the Textbook page No.9 that match with the words
on the chart/ BB.
Now Teacher should raise a discussion on how the opposite words are linked/connected.
Then the Teacher should write those words on the BB.
Ex : • The rich and the poor.
• The young and the old.
138
Activity-2
The Teacher may ask what are the other words that can go in pairs. The Teacher can
pictures ask them to write their names.
cup saucer
bat ball
pencil eraser
bread butter
139
The articles ‘a’, ‘an’ and ‘the’ are used for the naming words like bat, man, pencil, cup etc.
But when we see the other set of words like big, small, cold etc. we don’t use articles because they
are determiners/ describing words/ adjectives.
Now, look at the phrases.
The rich and the poor.
The young and the old.
¾ What is rich/ poor?
¾ Who is rich/ poor?
Here the rich means the people who are rich. Similarly the old means people who are old.
Hence, article ‘the’ is used in the phrase ‘the poor and the rich’.
Activity-4
Do page number 12 Grammar Task-A.

to cut the tree to build his new hut. He took an axe and went to the tree to cut it. All birds, cows,
ants and a pumpkin plant were watching him. They asked the farmer to stop cutting the Mango
tree. The cows questioned him "Who gave you right to cut the tree?" The birds questioned "Do
you want to destroy our shelter to get a shelter for you?". All the animals and birds shouted at him.
"We are staying here from long time. Where should we go? Do you remember, our loving mango
tree gave shelter for you also? How ungrateful you are! Don’t you have mercy?" After listening
to all, the farmer also became very sad. Now he changed his mind and started planting more mango

Introduction - Good morning students. I hope you all are fine. Did you complete your work. Let
us recollect what we learnt in the previous class.
Motivation : Yesterday you all understand that if the action is still continuing we add 'ing' to it when
we use it to describe. Now let us listen to a story. If this picture is converted into a story.
It was in the month of May when Rajeev and my sister Leela went to my uncles house to
spend holidays with our younger cousins Kumar. The youngest of all was Suma. As my grand
parents were staying with my uncle, we loved spending time with them. Suma used to fill the big
bucket with water to water the plants. It was the biggest bucket in their house. Kumar was helping
my grand father by folding clothes after they are ironed. I & my sister were guests to them. So
no work was alloted to us. My aunt used comb Leela's hair every day and make beautiful hair
styles. Leela loved the styles a lot. I was always playing with hens feeding them with small seeds.
It was a happy family. They were the happiest people to live with.

the sentences given below.
1. Hari saw a monster crab.
2. Hari put out his hand to shake the crab's claws.
3. On that day, the sun shone bright...
In sentence (1) 'a' is used before monster crab. Because the crab is one among the other
crabs in the sea.
Where as in sentence (2) the is used before crab. Because it is denoting that particular crab.
Hence 'a' is used when it is in a group/one among others but single.
'The' is used to denote when it is unique/particular. 'An' is used if the word begins with a
vowel (a, e, i, o, u) / vowel sounds.
